Cut working hours faster if AI speeds up job losses, a user argues
The post frames a four-day, 32-hour week, a sixth week of paid leave or keeping the retirement age relatively low as political options for sharing remaining work.
TLDR
A user argues that AI and robotics will create jobs, but more slowly than they destroy them. The post links past reductions in working time to automation outpacing job creation. If AI and autonomous robotics accelerate job losses, the user says, working hours will need to shrink faster too. Alongside options such as shorter weeks and more paid leave, the post raises a broader question: how to maintain an adequate standard of living under those conditions.
